Stage 5 Day 23 (0)
I feel better, but still not too good. Today and yesterday I managed to do a couple of hours of work but way fewer than I'd hope. This makes me feel quite useless but I'm functioning well enough.
Talking with my mom gave me some much needed solace. I was researching my job prospects and I through at her idea that maybe instead of going to the new job straight away I could spend some time learning new skill on my own if I were to find an interesting job that required it. I thought she would bomb this idea but she was optimistic, saying that I'd be fine to spend some time like that if it meant I'd get a job I'd enjoy.
I don't think there will be a need for it. If anything I'm doing this right now, this is exactly why I applied for scholarship in Autumn - so that I will get skills I need for the job I'm eyeing, at the cost of time of course. However I want to have more than one plan and so more options are always welcome. I have some money saved and I could easily survive a couple of years jobless - that's not the point. The point is I have options, that gives me some peace of mind. I don't envy people slaving away so that by the end of the month they have money so that they and their loved ones won't go hungry. Right now I don't have to worry about it and unless something catastrophic happens I never will.

For not by numbers of men, nor by measure of body, but by valor of soul is war to be decided.
